Flesh vs Spirit

Hey guys so I didn't really know what group I should post this to, but about 3 months ago I got into a relationship with a really good guy. He is leaving for college in August on a soccer scholarship so we won't always be able to see each other.  I'm a bit worried because we cannot seem to put our sexual wants aside. I know that a high sex drive is normal, but we want to take things slow and try to refrain from sex as long as we can. We are trying to remain abstinent. I am looking for any calming word or advice from anyone who could maybe provide insight? We just want to make sure we're together for all the right reasons, not just for sex. Thank you in advance 💙
